Updated status references to use canonical lowercase kebab-case format:
- dev-story/instructions.xml: Status field set to "review" (was "Ready for Review")
- dev-story/instructions.xml: Output messages reference actual "review" status
- dev-story/checklist.md: Status field instruction uses "review"
- daily-standup.xml: Status examples use "in-progress, review"
Story lifecycle: backlog → ready-for-dev → in-progress → review → done
Fixes#1105🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `drafted` story state is no longer used since create-story now sets
status directly to `ready-for-dev`. This PR removes all references to
this legacy state from BMM documentation and workflow files.
Changes:
- Remove `drafted` from story status definitions and state machine docs
- Remove dead story-context file detection (story-context files no longer exist)
- Replace "draft" verb with "create" in story-related messaging
- Add legacy `drafted` → `ready-for-dev` migration in sprint-status
- Clarify that validate-create-story is optional and doesn't change status
- Document story handoff sequence: create-story → (optional) validate → dev-story
Story lifecycle is now: backlog → ready-for-dev → in-progress → review → done

Change "Story is ready for next work!" to "Code review complete!"
The original phrasing was misleading - when a code review finishes
with status "done", it means the review itself is complete and the
story is marked done in tracking. However, the user may choose to
do additional reviews or the story may genuinely be finished.
"Code review complete" more accurately describes what actually
happened without implying next steps.
Removes references to epic-tech-context, story-context, story-done,
and story-ready workflows that were deleted in the Phase 4 transformation.
Also renames mislabeled excalidraw element IDs from proc-story-done
to proc-code-review to match the actual displayed text.
Fixes#1088

- Fix existing violations across 19 markdown files
- No auto-fix to prevent destructive changes

* update 2024 to 2025
* fix(workflows): remove hardcoded years from WebSearch queries
Years in search queries (2024/2025) do not improve results - search
engines already prioritize current documentation. Tested all patterns
and confirmed identical quality results with/without years.
Removes years from:
- step-03-starter.md (5 queries)
- step-04-decisions.md (2 queries)
- game-architecture/instructions.md (2 queries)
Leaves file-utils.md unchanged (test fixture data, not a search query).

* refactor(workflows): make web search references platform-agnostic
- Remove hardcoded year references from WebSearch queries
- Replace `WebSearch` tool name with natural language "search the web"
- Soften "training data is stale" to "verify and supplement your knowledge"
- Add web search prerequisite check to research workflow
- Add platform-agnostic design note to CLAUDE.md
This framework targets 15+ agentic platforms, not just Claude Code.
Tool-specific syntax like `WebSearch:` won't work across all platforms.
